The captain said if the FO hadn’t had the hat he would have had him removed from the flight. When the FO returned to base he shared the story with the union rep. They were not surprised by the name of the ATL captain. My bet is he’s a “no” vote.
Maybe more people need to know that name. You know…just so they can be prepared. Or so they can bid to fly with him and tell him to pound sand.

You and me both. That captain can pound sand.

That’s probably why an FO was needed. This is totally a guess….FO #2 gets assigned a short call (because the FO #1 saw who they were supposed to fly with and dropped the trip), sees who the CA is and has a car accident on the way to the airport. FO #3 ( out of base, opposite coast) gets rerouted. Now FO #3 has a new addition to his no-fly list. FO #1 and #2 update their no-fly lists. As soon as all the new hires have the pleasure of flying with CA they will update their lists and only FOs who are rerouted will get to fly with the CA.
PSA …you still have 31 minutes left to vote!

I don’t even carry my hat with me. I’m guessing he doesn’t actually have the power to remove his fo due to no hat. Fear tactics. He can call chief pilot who will probably laugh at him and tell him to get back to work. What an A-hole.

Is there a way to see what FOs (if any) have avoid listed Captains?

I don't think I've ****ed any off that bad, bu then again, inflation moths ate my hat months ago, and it hasn't seen the light of day since.

the funny part is it probably would have ended up like the whole mask thing during covid....where the one calling asking for the other pilot to be removed was actually the one removed.

The reason reports should show that. Just search each by the appropriate employee number.

We get it. Everyone hired at Delta prior to the merger is somehow beneath your lofty standards. You are so cool.

Exactly…who do you think the chief pilots office would be more annoyed with? I’m sure they are already familiar with him.

I’d imagine he will be one of the first calls the company makes, in the case a strike actually happens.
